London Week by Week The American relief meeting
A vivid London diary reports an April 1908 gathering at the Grand Hall Hotel Cecil to aid earthquake and coastal disaster sufferers. Notables chaired by American Ambassador Whitelaw Reid heard varied speeches, raised funds exceeding £2,500, and noted U.S. policy on foreign aid. Crowds formed outside, with processions and patriotic displays, while a Welsh Lancashire turnout and Everton supporters starred in surrounding scenes.
